Education Startup

The Gist\nWe're a stealth mode education start-up in the Los Angeles area that is re-inventing the way institutions utilize technology. The founders of the company were instructors themselves at universities so we have an intimate knowledge of how desperately this area needs to be properly served. We set out to build a solution to this problem and have since received nothing but positive support and feedback from many large players in the industry. Although there are many moving parts to what we are trying to accomplish, our flagship product runs as a Ruby on Rails web application that makes heavy use of Amazon’s cloud hosting and services environment.\n\n \n\n\n\nWhat we’re looking for\nThe definition of “DevOps” is somewhat controversial, but we prefer the one from http://theagileadmin.com/what-is-devops/: 'System administrators participating in the product development process alongside developers and using a many of the same techniques for their systems work.' We are looking for an experienced DevOps Engineer to join our small but talented web team to help ensure our application infrastructure is as scalable, robust, and secure as possible. We are flexible on location and are open to a remote developer as long as you are a strong communicator and have proven experience working remotely. \n\nOur ideal candidate is an savvy sysadmin with experience working in an agile environment. Our customers deserve the best data protection we can give them so a background in InfoSec is also a huge bonus.\n\n\n \n\n\n\n What you’ll be doing\nYou will be working alongside our current DevOps Engineer on a team of ~10 developers. As the company and product are still quite young, you will have a great opportunity to provide input on infrastructure related decisions across our product line. Primarily, you will be responsible for helping estimate, provision, automate, and monitor the infrastructure for our applications. As part of this process, you will need to develop risk and threat analyses along with mitigation and response strategies. You will also be asked to deliver monitoring and usage reports to the founders from time to time.yagJzhkdapAsCMnUw7CpJAMi
